Leadership in the Polar Regions: A Global Perspective
2023-03-03 18:00 - 20:30 UTC | Chicago Yacht Club, Chicago, IL, United States
Leadership in the Polar Regions: A Global Perspective
As the polar regions become more accessible, understanding them is increasingly important. The Arctic and Antarctic are perhaps the last global frontiers, rich in natural resources and of strategic value, yet basically ungoverned. The U.S. is a leader in polar scientific research, and also a leader as one of the 8 Arctic nations and a signatory to the Antarctic treaty. Vice Admiral Sandy Stosz will speak about some of the issues associated with the polar regions, and her experiences performing U.S. Coast Guard missions in the Polar Regions

Vice Admiral Sandy Stosz spent time on Cape Cod visiting her grandparents at their home on Great Bay in Falmouth throughout her childhood. During those summers, she learned to ply a rowboat, dig for clams, and swim in the ocean. Having developed a liking for the sea and its lore here on the Cape, she attended the US Coast Guard Academy in New London, CT. Upon commissioning, she spent 36 years serving our Nation as a Coast Guard cutterman. She spent 12 years at sea, including deployments on icebreakers to the Arctic and Antarctic, and commanded two ships. After retiring, she wrote a book, Breaking Ice & Breaking Glass: Leading in Uncharted Waters, to give back leadership lessons learned during her four decades in uniform. After retiring, her track line led her “home” to Cape Cod where she resides with her husband in Falmouth. Vice Admiral Stosz’s talk will spotlight the US Coast Guard, and feature lessons and stories from her leadership journey with the Service.
